WWII Hero Robbed and Murdered by four black youths

Publisher's note:  When I saw this story not showing up as the MAIN story on the Fox News website, I was very surprised, more so that the Fox report only mentioned that "four youths" have been arrested in connection with the October 18th crime; then when I did some checking to find that the youths were black.  I'm not suggesting for a moment that the ethnicity of the assailants makes the crime any more or less palatable, however, this smacks of racially biased reporting on the part of Fox News by virtue of it not being mentioned.

I will also note that yesterday, Reverend Al Sharpton, known for taking up every bogus case he finds and then using his 'race baiting machine' to exploit his cause, (making millions for himself) has started making a big issue about an incident at Barney's in NYC where several individuals may have been racially profiled when making a large purchase.  I don't know if they were or not, and I would never suggest that such profiling is right; however it pales in light of four black youths robbing and murdering a defenseless, elderly, businessman in his own driveway.  That the victim in this case was a WWII veteran makes it even more distasteful.  

Man up Al....you're the worst kind of racist; only when it suits your racially divisive agenda do you speak up.

Fox News Report:  Four Mississippi teenagers have been charged with murder in the killing of a beloved World War II veteran who gained local fame for his home-cooked hot tamales.

The long and lustrous life of Lawrence “Shine” Thornton, 87, was celebrated last week during a ceremony at St. Joseph Catholic Church. Following the ceremony, Thornton was buried with military honors at Greenlawn Memorial Gardens.

Thornton died Oct. 20, succumbing to the injuries he sustained after four teenagers "pushed him down and stole his wallet," during an apparent mugging that occurred in the late-afternoon two days earlier in the driveway of his long-time Greenville home.

Meanwhile, Greenville Assistant Police Chief Andrew Kaho told the Delta Democrat Times that Terrance Morgan, 19; Edward Johnson, 19; Leslie Litt, 18; and Geblonski Murray, 18; were all arrested Monday, and charged with capital murder, robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.

Lawrence Shine Thornton was an 87 year old World War II veteran. I say was because he has died after a fatal burglary attempt by four teens who could be Obama’s sons. Terrance Morgan, Edward Johnson, Leslie Litt and Geblonski Murray could all be Obama’s son like Trayvon Martin. These four black thugs ‘allegedly’ attacked the elderly Lawrence Shine Thornton on his own property. The elderly man later died at the
